Habakkuk 1
1 THE BURDEN which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
Hiche hi Habakkuk themgaovin thilmu aneina thudol ahi.
2 How long, O LORD, shall I cry, and Thou wilt not hear? I cry out unto Thee of violence, and Thou wilt not save.
Vo PAKAI, itihchan geija panpi ngaichaa kakou kou di hitam? Hinla nangin nei ngaipeh poi! “Muntina nosopma kibolna aum tai!” Ka kap in, hinla eipanhu dingin na hungpoi.
3 Why dost Thou show me iniquity, and beholdest mischief? And why are spoiling and violence before me? so that there is strife, and contention ariseth.
Hiche gitlou kibol hohi kavet vet jing ding hitam? Hiche gim gentheina ho jouse hi ibol’a kavet vet jeng ding ham? Keiman kavet chanin mahthahna le nosopma kibolna hobou ka mudoh’e. Mi nelkal hat ho leh kinahpia hat mihonpi chun eihin umkimvel tauve.
4 Therefore the law is slacked, and right doth never go forth; for the wicked doth beset the righteous; therefore right goeth forth perverted.
Dan hi donlou tobangbep chu ahitai, chule thutanna munho’a jong thudih umtalou ahi. Migilou ho chun midih ho sanga gamchenga atamjoh jeh-uvin, thudih chu heikoija um bepma ahitai.
5 Look ye among the nations, and behold, and wonder marvellously; for, behold, a work shall be wrought in your days, which ye will not believe though it be told you.
Pakai chun adonbut in, “Chitin namtin ho khu gahven chuleh kidangsa temin! Ajeh chu keiman nangma nikho laiya hi thilkhat kahin boldoh ding, mi koiham khattouvin seijongleh na tahsan louhel ding chu kahinbol ding ahije.
6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and impetuous nation, that march through the breadth of the earth, to possess dwelling-places that are not theirs.
Keiman Babylon mite ho, giloutah le nosopma mibol ho chu ka hin tundoh ding ahi. Amahon vannoi muntin apaltan’uva kijotle ding’u chule gam dang tampi ahinjo dingu ahi.
7 They are terrible and dreadful; their law and their majesty proceed from themselves.
Amaho hi gitlou abol nauva engsetah’a chonna ahiuvin, chutia abolnom chengseu chu abol’u ahi.
8 Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the wolves of the desert; and their horsemen spread themselves; yea, their horsemen come from far, they fly as a vulture that hasteth to devour.
Sakol aneihou jong lutnu sangin alhai hatjouvin, khomu chipchep a ngeihon lhakhom sangin jong ahoise jouve. Sakol kangtalaija touho chun gamlataha konin a sakol ho’u chu ahin thunun jeng uvin; Muvanlai lengle hon a anchah’u abokhumuva avallhum jiu kisei tobang ahiuve.
9 They come all of them for violence; their faces are set eagerly as the east wind; and they gather captives as the sand.
Oh, ahung tauve, abonchauvin nosopma boldin akunsuh tauve. A gancha hon hou jong chu nelphaija hui bangin ahung kitol’un, amasanguva asohchang ho’u ahin masot hou chu neldi tamin atam jeng uvin ahi.
10 And they scoff at kings, and princes are a derision unto them; they deride every stronghold, for they heap up earth, and take it.
Amahon leng ho le leng chapate ho chu isahlou tah'in abolun, chule akulpi ho jouse chu isah loutahin aboluve.
11 Then their spirit doth pass over and transgress, and they become guilty: even they who impute their might unto their god.
Amaho chu hui nung bangin akitolun chule achemang tauve. Hinla amaho sungil’a themona nei ahiuve, athahat uchu pathena nei ahiuve.”
12 Art not Thou from everlasting, O LORD my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O LORD, Thou hast ordained them for judgment, and Thou, O Rock, hast established them for correction.
Vo Pakai ka Pathen, nangma tonsotna um, ka Mithengpa Nangman nei theh manghel jeng hih nauvin nate na? Vo Pakai, ka Songpiu, nangman hiche Babylon mite hi eisudih dinguleh ka chonsetna ho’u atam jeh'a ei-gimbol dinguva na hinsol ahi.
13 Thou that art of eyes too pure to behold evil, and that canst not look on mischief, wherefore lookest Thou, when they deal treacherously, and holdest Thy peace, when the wicked swalloweth up the man that is more righteous than he;
Nangma hila athenga nahin chule agilou chu n maikoh a umtheilou ahi. Chuti ahileh amaho do’ha joulhepna namitsat ding hijaham? Mi engsete chun asanguva chonphajo avallhumu jongleh thipbeh a naum ding hitam?
14 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?
Keiho hi ahinga kimandoh dinga le akithat dinga kiman ho tobangbep kahiuvem? Kei ho hi twikhanglen na um ganhing ho lamkai bei tobangbep ka hiuvem?
15 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag; therefore they rejoice and exult.
Amaho kipanaa le golnop bolna dinguva, ngakoija eiki khaidoh dinga chuleh lensunga ohden bep ding bou kahi dingu hitam?
16 Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and offer unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their food plenteous.
Chuteng leh amahon lenthang anei hou chu Pathen tobang'in houvun tin, chuleh amasanguva chun gimnamtwi halna nei uvinte. Amaho chun, “Hiche lenthang pathen hohin keiho eihaodoh sah’u ahi” ati ding’u ahi.
17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare to slay the nations continually?
Nangman ama ho hi hiti dinmuna hi nasolmangpai pai ding ham? Amaho hi phottohna beihella agaljouva hi i-tiha maipah jing dingu hitam?
